Hot wire hook up

Recommended Posts

Can someone please tell me what would be the best fuse to use in the inside fuse box on a 2009 mini cooper s to tie in a accessory wire thats hot when the ignition is on and off when its off. Thanks for any help any one can give me.

Sparky,

Attached is a list of the fuses, the number, amperage and their use. They can be pretty odd to say the least because so many of them will leave power on for up to 30 minutes after the car is turned off and you'll even wonder at times if they ever turned off because they will power up as soon as you unlock the car.

 

If you want to ensure the device does turn off/on with the car, the cigarette lighter is a great choice. If you want to use the accessory with the ignition on but the car off, it won't work for you. Sorry I can't give you a specific fuse but I hope the schematic will help.
